The Triname Computer and Technology Center                        

 Holy Trinity A.M.E. Church as has begun  its  journey into the Information Age. Holy Trinity A.M.E. recognizes the need for children to not only be prepared spiritually for the world, but also to have the ability to compete mentally and economically. The best way to ensure that children will learn and retain skills; that will help them compete for future jobs and careers is to keep them informed about the technology of today. Computers are an area of our current society that are growing constantly, but rarely understood, by those who are computer illiterate.

 

Holy Trinity A.M.E. Church has sought out organizations that believe in the same philosophy; that children should obtain computers skills at an early age to help close the digital divide (the difference between the computer literate and computer illiterate). Computers can be an asset in the area of educational advancement. Many people who live in economically disadvantaged neighborhoods find it difficult or impossible to afford the cost of a personal computer for their household.

The PowerUP Organization and Break Away Technologies have help to ease this concern. These two organizations have been beneficial in helping to create The Triname Computer and Technology Center, which is located inside of Holy Trinity A.M.E. The Center houses ten computers which were donated by the PowerUP organization and networked by Break Away Technologies. The Center provides computer lessons and an after school program for school aged children who are members of our church and children in the surrounding community.

 

We provide typing lessons, Microsoft Office education, Internet and email proficiency, a Reading program, Tutoring, Arts and Crafts and a Money lab that teaches children the value of money; how its earned, and how to budget and save it wisely. All of the computers have such programs as Microsoft Office 2000, MS Publisher, MS FrontPage, The Microsoft Encarta Series, (Africana, Researcher, Library, Bookshelf, Encyclopedia, and Dictionary). Creative Writer, The Magic School Bus series and a high speed DSL Internet Access hosted by America On-Line (AOL). The Triname Computer and Technology Center is open 5 days a week Monday-Thursday 3:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m. and Saturdays 9:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m.

The Triname Computer and Technology Center also offers classes to Adults.
